If IU moved away from bed rush and used the same system everyone else does, it wouldn't eliminate exclusivity. Except at Tufts, there is no guarantee of a "space for all." A PNM can always be dropped from recruitment entirely. And, the desirable chapters still won't take "just anybody." Even at schools where there is guaranteed placement for PNMs who maximize their options, there are tiers. So, exclusivity is still there, but it is within the system. In other words, the elitism isn't so much in just being greek, but in belonging to a certain chapter.
